Your Workplace
At Backaskolan, we have a holistic view of knowledge and learning, and we see the ability to collaborate as fundamental for development. This applies to educators among themselves as well as in their work with students. The vision for Backaskolan is educators who work closely together and focus on students' learning and development during both school and leisure time. A team consisting of three teachers with complementary competencies shares responsibility for both school and leisure activities and follows their group throughout the entire day and school time, grades F-3. Does this sound interesting?
Backaskolan started in the autumn of 2017. The school is built close to nature, which has inspired both the choice of materials and furnishings. In the restaurant, meals are prepared from scratch, and much of what we serve consists of ingredients that have been saved from going to waste. The premises are designed for flexible teaching with a large gathering room and several smaller and larger group rooms in each home base. The flexibility of the premises aligns with the school's vision of stimulating, enjoyable, and creative learning environments.
